OUR IMPACT

With a pledge of $50,000, Skagit Community Foundation has joined the effort to build a new YMCA building in Mount Vernon. Located adjacent to Salem Lutheran Church, the five acre plot of land will house a full-size gym with a 4,500 square foot running track, a learning kitchen for classes on healthy eating, a community room and more programming for youths.

​With a history of collaborating with community partners, our donors believe the YMCA not only makes fitness possible for all ages, but a county-wide shared facility like this strengthens our community ties and uses limited resources to the maximum advantage.
